We recently purchased several B200-M3 blades with E5-2680v2 processors. Our UCS infrastructure and blade firmware is at 2.2(1d). ESXi hosts are at 5.5u1.From my reading of the Release Notes, this makes the new blades vulnerable to Caveat CSCuo30572...

Whoops. I spoke too soon. Upon further review, the load was not quite the same as before until the morning progressed and our XenApp VMs spun up to handle the business day. The split-transaction-stop errors returned. TAC is consulting with VIC t...

Thank you for the prompt and helpful response.
I haven't seen any discernable performance or functionality issues with this blade, so I agree that the Split Transaction messages are probably benign. The extra chat is somewhat problematic, however, i...
I plan to follow your advice and check the LSI utility to see if there is a disk failure being detected. I will schedule a server downtime for this as soon as possible and report the results here.Thanks again for the response. .... . . . . .. .. ...
